sea spinach

When I went to school in Ireland, I was lucky enough to live walking distance from the ocean. It was the first time in my life I could ever say I lived by the smell of sea salt in the air.

At least 3 times a week, I would either walk or run to the water to escape the chaos of class and also at the same time do a little “grocery shopping.” My favorite things to pick up along the way were blackberries that lined the streets and also my favorite… seaweed. I was fascinated by the health benefits and also all the variety of uses it had in the kitchen!
